Playing House-a game where love always wins. Bel and Max have an arrangement. Their busy lives leave little time for a 'real' relationship so they meet every few months, choosing to spend their time together exploring the sensual pleasures life has to offer. Bel left her emotionally abusive husband years before and never found the time to date. Max has trust issues because his wife had left him for his best friend. When they get together, the sexual chemistry can't be denied but their emotions have to be held at bay. A visit to Max's home has them Playing House and they spend their time doing things that other couples take for granted. Bel's increasing desire to spend more time with Max brings those hidden emotions to the surface and a choice must be made.

Will Max learn to trust again? Will his indecision cause Bel to doubt his feelings for her? Will Bel be able to live with the small part of his life that he is willing to give or will Max realise that a more permanent solution is what they need?.
